There was no nonsense about BedfoFd
Forrest. =;5,,s1z7-,--=-
He lacked the iingling spectacular dis
play of Jeb Stuart, but as Il daslling cay
airy leader the world has not seen his
match since Murat led the resistleSs rush
of his meteOric SquadronS.
Forrest like Sherman, regarded war as
the science Of barbarism. When he dealt a
blow he was in terrible earnest, and every
thing that stood in his way had to go down.
Even in peace this GRIM warrior liked an
occasional sniff of villainous saltpeter. But
he could not tolerate private combat I'M
less it was fair fight.
1t was not i'll the mans nature to take
kindly to mobs. All the rough chivairy in
him revolted against mob law, and being
afraid of nothing in the shape of man or
devil, he more than once threw himself
sngle-handed into the vortex OF a mob to
rescue the helpless object of its fury.
Some thirty years ago old nalI Able was
the terror of Memphis. He was the head
of a gang of tonghs. The law was power
less. Finally old man Able's son killed a
leading citizen. 1t was q cold booded
murder. LII an hour the city was up The
clatter of arms was heard on every hand
sands OF frenzied men surrounded the Jail
and dragged the shivering murderer to a
Jude gailows.
Just at tie last moment man with a
gunpowdery face mounted The scaffold He
turned his scOwling brow and lurid eyes
upon the tumultuous multitude. A few
electric sentences flashed. OF rather Kissed,
through his clenched teeth. 1t was hard
for 5000 men to stand there and take that
tongue lashing; but every mothers son of
| them knew Bedford Forrest. They gloried
in his nerve. his pluck and audacity, and
when he started alone to march young Able
back to jail the cowed and beaten lynchers
silently opened their ranks and yielded to
the inevitable.
But Forrest did still more daring deed.
Shortly after the war. when mems passions
were intlaned to fever heat, Federal sol
der killed an eX-Confederate. Instantly
the city was turned into pandemunium.
| The victim was dragged through the
streets. The halter was drawn around his
neck, when Forrest threw himself into the
| center of the mad whirl, scattering the mob
| right and left.
Before you lynch this man you have got
| TO shed my hearts blood!' he said as he faced
| the Infatuated swarm.
1t was Bedford Forests way. The lynch
ers howled and swore. Then they laughed
and clieered, and the battered veteran was

With all due regard for chronological

weather not only interfered with tile adj

vices at this time of the year, when spring
bonnets are in order. Very few people
were seen on the street, and
the harvest which liverymen expected
to reap did not materialZe. A
talk with Signal Officer Lyon last evening
developed the fact that the people of St.
Paul need not expect much warmer weather
for day or two more. 1t is still cold in

BISHOP CHENEY.
A Thoughtful Sermon by the Chi
cage Divine at faouse of Hope
Presbyterisan Church

f>EcSDy
By invitation of the pastor, Rev. Robert
Christie. the House of Hope Presbyterian
church was occupied last night by the
disciples of the Reformed Episcopal chulch,
Bishop Cheney, of Chicago. and Rev. f. ID.
NELL, OF st. Paul. conducting the services.
Bishop Cheney preached the sermon from
the text contained in Hebrews H., 14-15.
The sermon was contradictory argument
based upon the principles of agnOsticiSiM.
The invincible law of nature, said the
divine, was the decay Of all things human.
Men had sought in vain to commemorate
events by architecture which time had
crumbed into ruins; by anniversaries which
time obiterated from mans memory: but it
is eighteen centuries since Christ was born
and lived, and was crucitied and was reSur-
recred, ana the anniversary of the day on
which He rose from the dead was more uni
vers2lly commemorated on each succeeding
Easter day. More people in the last few
weeks have turned their attention TO the
memories and associations OF Easter time
than ever before since the event of the
resurrection He agreed with the AgnosticS
that the SuperStitouS clouds of ages were
rolling away before the advance of truth and
enlightenment in this nineteenth century,
bur the more men studied science ana in
quired into the governing laws of nature,
the more they found that it was impossible
to get along in this world without belief in
the supernatural. The fear OF death in
every unbeliever's heart was substantial
proof that there was something in the
gospel doctrines. The debt of death is
payable on demand. and the position
of Il man who cannot believe on the Lord Je-
sus Christ, was in the position of slave,
haunted by the terrible fear that at any mo-
nent he would be called into the unknown
beyond. God, in His infinite knowledge.
takes His own way to bring about the ends of
right He had chosen to send. His Son in
mans flesh and blood to earth to suffer and to
die for'mans sins, that whatsoever believed
on Him might have eternal life. Resting IN
that sweet belief the Christian found no fear
of death.,.r
Bishop Cheney breaches fervently, and
in an earnest and impressive manner that
carries conviction. In his most eloquent
sentences he pauses 10 articulate every
sound separately and distinctly. He uses
no notes. and his dicti0n is smooth and
clear. He is a man of large proportions
and striking features, whose personality is
not lost beneath the folds of his bishops
gown.

Fox Den om "a WA.

Baltimore Sun.
During the early part of the winter a
pair of red foxes took possession of a part
of the lawn of S. n. Hyde, i'll Long Green
Valley. Baltimore county, and about a
hundred yards in front OF the house pre-
pared nice, comfortable den. where they
now reside. On Saturday last Mr.. Hyde's
family heard pack of hounds in full cry.
and looking from the porch were just in
time to see the winding up OF all exciting
chase, and see the fox enter his safe quar-
tiers on the laws only about two hundred
yards ahead of the hounds. 1t appears the
fox was started in Hartford county, and
having got his brush wet from the soft
snow he was compelled to take to his den
after an exciting chase of less than two
hours. Mr.. Hyde thinks he has stayed
close at home since his narrow escape on
Saturday, as. when the fog cleared about
noon yesterday the old gentleman was
curled up, apparently asleep, at the mouth
of his den. He soon, however, awOke AMI
walked slowly away to the cover to finish
his nap. leaving his better half to attend
and watch over their family of little foxes.
